right now God is stretching His body like a rubber band... almost to the point of popping. after God told me awhile back He was going to be stretching me... an elder at my church stood up one sunday telling about a vision he had. he said he saw a pecan. the shell got crushed but the meat inside was not harmed at all. he said God spoke: i am crushing my body in the days ahead... you will not be harmed. it will be hard but this has to happen for the good of the body. in between God telling me about him stretching me and being told of the vision God took me back to the story of the refiners fire. you know the story right?... some little old church ladies were doing their sunday school lessons and one of them decided to do an in depth study... and she found the silversmith but the silver in the fire and at the moment the dross comes out and the silversmith has purified the silver he removes it in that moment because a moment to long and the silver is destroyed... the thing is tho... the silver smith knows this precise moment by being able to see his reflection in the silver. Gen 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. Gen 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. God clearly says his making of dry land is good. on dry land can be found mountains... and valleys. now look at those majestic mountains. are they not breath taking? a marvel of His craftsmanship? and we love to be on that mountain top, dont we. but what do you see... rocks, snow, etc. now look to the valley. what do you see? its green and lush... only in the valleys do things grow. therefore, embrace your valley. even more, cast your cares upon The LORD because HE CARES FOR YOU!!! we are not without a Helper. we are not forsaken. its one thing to pray for you, and i will gladly lift up a sweet savor of incense on your behalf... but there is that part that you must do. you must walk, one foot in front of the other. you must be strong and do this. do you not know that God chose us... for such a time as this? He will carry you when you are not able, just as Jesus had help carrying the cross... but Gods will still came to pass. Jesus has defeated the grave. if His Spirit is in you, and i highly suspect it is... this is your inheritance. you are more than an overcomer. my prayer is God would strengthen you in this time, show you how to lean on Him in depending on Him for your EVERY need. even to give you peace, but to teach you how to ask for peace as needed. and that He would draw you even closer. i ask God give you understanding on how to use your time wisely... to get closer to Him. to be preparing yourself for even harder times. And that your faith be made stronger. Set our eyes on you LORD. nothing else can compare to your worth. Oh thank you for helping us. amen. its not easy to wait on God. but its a good place to be, knowing by your own power... i cant do this. Thy Strength is needed LORD. You know, God told me to trust Him. To stop seeking an escape. He's the Lord. I do trust him. Luk 17:32 Remember Lot's wife. Luk 17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. |

I ask for my daily bread and he gives it to me. i got no doubt you do. but what im really speaking on is not the eating... but the digestion. its a lot of friction where the rubber meets the road. and this is where God tests us, and proves us. where He tries our reins. His ways are good. Job said, tho He slay me yet will i trust Him. complete surrender. not my will... but thy will.
Its not easy being a christian. i would like to say its rainbows and lollipops. but a rainbow is to remind God not to destroy us again by water... because our hearts want to wander. broken-ness has its place in life for a believer. and as long as we stay humble in it and thru it... its what brings God to pour out his compassion on us. to help us. Jesus was a man of sorrows. in this life we will have tribulation. guaranteed. The Mouth of The LORD has declared it.
I COUNT IT ALL JOY paul said . I AM EXCEEDING JOYFUL . ABOVE NORMAL JOY , THROUGH ALL OUR TRIBULATIONS . Paul knew a deep beauty . and though i know it , I HAVE NOT yet experienced it . But just as i knew other things , when i experienced them , AND GOD was with me and reminded me , MY FAITH ONLY GREW . An example . i knew for years that GOD would be with us through anything , I KNEW it was better to depart and be with HIM . YET , when i experienced a trial , at the first instant i felt fear . YET not total fear , just some fear . I got a bit worried when i ran into some health issues . YET , and i do say YET WHEN GOD send me this reminder , I HAD A PEACE I NEVER HAD BEFORE . even though before I DID HAVE PEACE . let me explain . I thought , man maybe i have cancer . And i remember feeling some fear . i went to several hospitals . now i went with the knoweldge that GOD was with me yet there was some fear there . That day i went to two hospitals . and ran into dead end blocks as i have ZERO DOLLARS to spare . As i left the second hospital , GUESS what words came to me . GOD IS IN CONTROL . IF MY TIME IS UP , ITS UP and i will be WITH HIM , IF MY TIME IS NOT UP , HE WILL HEAL ME . TOTAL PEACE FLOODED ME . I NEVER LOOKED back . TO this day , I NEVER LOOKED BACK . This is what i mean by , EVEN through our trials , GOD IS WITH US and HE will give us peace . SO no matter what is coming I Promise ALL WE NEED IS HIM . And when i say all , I MEAN ALL WE NEED IS HIM . whether we live or whether we die , WE ARE HIS . To this day folks tell me GET a PSA , AND YET , I WORRY NOT and I HAVE FELT TONS BETTER TOO . WHEN MY TIME IS UP , ITS UP , but i promise this , IT AINT UP , TILL GOD SAYS SO . and WHEN IT IS , I WILL HAVE ONLY TEN BILLION FOLD MORE JOY than i even can taste NOW . WE WIN< JESUS WON . WE WIN JESUS WON . WE WIN JESUS WON . Now let us all armour up , BETRAYAL IS AT THE DOOR . |

I will be glad when all of the businesses are open again, and life gets back to normal. It is so sad seeing what is taking place, all because of fear being put on everyone. People are always concerned when there is a new flu strain, but I have never seen anyone behave like this, and nobody can convince me this is not orchestrated, and part of a world wide conspiracy.

There is indeed a war for the souls of men . And the enemy sleeps not , while we know corona is real , there is indeed an agenda at work . The language of this track and trace , this solution so called , is all over the world , from liberal leaders to conservative ones , from democracies to socialism to communism , the langague is the same . Which means , this is A WORLD AGENDA , and they gonna USE IT . The truth is , track and trace has been increasing in many avenues of approach . They have long desired a one world where all can be controlled and they build the empire , system of the beast . For satan uses thier greed and ambitions for HIS desired goal . To make ready a system to hand all unto the beast . And that said system is nigh total ripening now . They got many avenues by which to squeeze , coax , persaude many to enter into the net they have made . corona is just another tool . So is terroism , so is the idea of world peace and unity , And many are marching right into a snare , and at the end they fall into the snare they set for the lambs . You see, the SPIRIT behind all of this has one desire . Just one . MAKE WAR AGAINST THE LAMB and the saints . and through education , through allures of the flesh convience , through fear and a false hope He is getting the world ready , TO DO JUST THAT . TO JOIN as ONE and rage war against the LAMB and the saints . For the dragon knows something , HIS TIME IS SHORT and he shall rage and gather the world to come full force against the LAMB and lambs . Its where its all headed , and rather fast i must add . |

We all got a bible and we all love it . Let us read it daily . For in it , it speaks very clear on the signs of the times .
I invite us all to read matthew twenty four . mark thirteen . luke seventeen and twenty one . Read first tim chapter four , read second tim chapter three .
Read second thess where it speaks ofa delusion , and a falling away .
THEN take a peek at this world and at even mainstream christanity in large . THEN my advice is , BE WATCHING . cause , by grace , me sees what days we in .

For just a little longer and He that shall come will come and will not tarry . OH of how much more are those words TOTALLY RELEVANT FOR TODAY .

Two more things we need to know . ONE . so long as we are in this world it will grow more wicked , a falling away will mushroom only more , and in this world ye shall have tribulation .
And the second thing is . WATCH , For the LORD does come in an hour ye think NOT .
Let us embrace the wonderous truth in that bible . For though we know not the hour HE does come , WE can surely see the season . He told us what it would look like . I say us
cause the words HE told those apostels , APPLY EVERY BIT TO US and are every bit as relevant to us , as they were to them . The dire necessity of the pure and wonderous truth in that bible
Is er bit as precisous and necessary and applies to us TODAY . BATTLE TIME . we enter into the trenches , that many before us have . The climax of it all is building fast .

You will be ok sister. Use this time to get your house in order. Make things that you might need later. Make phone calls on those who are elderly and can't get out on their own, check on them, they really appreciate that.... call all your friends. I don't have enough time to get things done still but this has been a blessing in disguise. I canned a bunch of applesauce the last few days. My neighbor sold her pigs and didn't need the 2nd hand apples, they were still very good apples, mostly small but still good. I need to sew blankets, gardening... the list goes on... you will find lots to do but most of all ask our friend and Lord Jesus what He would like for you to do every day. blessings! love ya!  |
